Re: What the New Haven Police Should Be Doing to Advance the Jovin Case

- Shame Yale University, an institution with a $10 billion endowment, to hire a private investigator.

- Spray luminal on the floors of every stolen car recovered. Go back to every stolen (and recovered) car and every car impounded by the police to look for blood, hair or skin residue on the floor.

- Ask every arrested criminal what he or she may know about the Jovin case.

- Check on crimes in and around New Haven involving knives.

- Encourage the Jovin family to file a formal application to the Vidocq society for special help...

One of the world's most unusual crime-solving organizations meets on the top floor of the historic Public Ledger Building in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. In a famed walnut-paneled meeting room, members of The Vidocq Society honor Eugène François Vidocq, the brilliant 18th century French detective who founded the Sûreté, by applying their collective forensic skills and experience to "cold" cases, particularly murders. At Vidocq luncheons, Vidocq Society Members (VSM's) evaluate, investigate, and often solve the unsolved crimes presented to them.

VSMs are forensic professionals, motivated by public service, who eagerly donate centuries of deductive and scientific talent for the common good. A long-unsolved homicide or disappearance is usually the centerpiece of each Vidocq Society meeting. The crime and its evidence are disclosed to members and invited guests, with an eye toward rekindling or refocusing the investigation. When requested, VSMs participate in the investigation and also the prosecution of the person or persons eventually charged with the crime.
